Hello beautiful ladies!

I have a long story to share about my December purchases. Please allow me to share :loveeyes:... I came across with the “20A rainbow ombré reissue mini” thread right before Thanksgiving. At first I didn’t like it but the more I read and saw all the different color variations it grew on me so I really wanted to get a WOC. I knew that I was very late in the game as I reached out to all of my SAs to search for the WOC but there was none left. Then one SA found one mini left in stock and it was brand new so I ordered it. The color combo wasn’t quite what I liked. However, it was very shiny and metallic-y! I guess bcuz I wanted the WOC so much the mini didn’t really satisfy me.

I then called Chanel Customer Care to inquire about the WOC. They told me that it was sold out nationwide but Chanel Ala Moana boutique in Honolulu may still have it. Since I didn’t have any SA contact there I had to wait for an SA to call me. Long story short, when an SA from that boutique called me she said her store had only 2 left so I was given an option to pick between the 2. The color combo on those 2 weren’t very nice. However, I had no choice but decided to pick 1. While she sent me the transaction via email to complete my payment she went into her stockroom and found a 3rd WOC which was hidden all the way in the back! She sent me some pics and I was thrilled! :yahoo:It was much better than the first 2 and I think it was gorgeous! So I ordered the WOC along with a pair of earrings from her.

Last but not least is about my 3rd item, a pair of earrings that were on sale! I was also very happy that I scored a pair of earrings on sale from Saks. It just so happened that I got these earrings without any plan ahead! So funny, that on Wednesday morning when my alarm went off at 5:50 am, and I opened my eyes, the first thing I checked was my phone. I saw that an SA had started posting sale items on his shared album. The earrings were posted at 5:51 am, I blinked my eyes (as they were not fully open yet :yucky:) and saw the price listed as $300 for final sale. I texted him immediately and told him that I wanted it and sent him my info and card while I was still in bed and not fully awake yet!:biggrin:

So here they are. Proudly presenting my rainbow WOC (in all its glorious luminosity under different shades of lighting) and 2 pairs of earrings with 1 of them being on sale. Thank you so much for your patience and letting me share my long story! :hbeat:
